this is a great crowd recipe, I made about 18 smaller ones instead of 12 large ones andFor the sauce I use apple juice in place of water, and when I have it I drizzle boiled apple cider over the top after it has baked about half way....YUMMMM apple deliciousness !!! I also use apple pie seasoning for authentic apple pie taste in a roll for breakfast/brunch : )
4/16/2012 02:19:41 PM Report AbuseI first starting using this recipe in 2000! It is absolutely the best apple dessert I have ever had the pleasure of trying. One thing I love about this recipe is it is freezable, and can be baked the day of event. I get it ready all but sauce and cover with foil, then day of event I bring it back to room temp add sauce and bake. Everyone I've ever severed it to loves it enough to ask for it again or the recipe.
12/12/2011 08:27:18 AM Report Abusethis is a great and easy recipe, however, we like a bit more sauce, so I add 3 cups water and sugar and just double the other dry seasonings for the sauce..very tasty and yummy..we serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.@ hicarolhi. you can cook this ahead of time and either warm individual servings in microwave or make dumplings and make sauce before your ready to cook it. I feel the sauce is best warmed when poured in pan with dumplings.
12/11/2011 02:33:07 PM Report AbuseWay too sweet for me, and I consider myself to have a sweet tooth. Next time, I would try omitting sprinkling the sugar cinnamon mixture on the apples and just pour the sauce on the apples before rolling. I would reserve some sauce to glaze over the top of them and might use chopped apples intead of grated. Might make again...we'll see.
12/9/2011 02:58:57 PM Report AbuseI would like to make these for our family Christmas brunch this year (2011). Could anyone tell me if they can be "put together" the day before and then bake the day I need them? Perhaps keep the sauce separate and add that right before putting in the oven? Thanks for any help.
